Snow Fans

EVANSTON — Now that we have had a good snowfall, I make a plea to meteorologists, anchor people and the public. Please don't assume that everyone dislikes winter and snow. Some of us actually look forward to it.

Meteorologists, when making your forecasts, please don't make an impending snowfall sound like a torturous experience. Say, "for those of you who love snow, more is coming your way," instead of, "sorry to say, but more snow is coming tomorrow."

Think of it this way, if you had to listen to us gripe on the air about summer for three months, you would feel the same way we do.
